NCT ID NCT02379429
First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study collects blood, urine, saliva, and tissue samples from 500 adults with or at risk for urothelial cancer (bladder, ureter, urethra). Researchers will analyze DNA and other molecular changes to understand how the cancer forms and progresses. Participants provide samples during standard care and are followed every 6 months for updates.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this research could reveal genetic changes that lead to new treatments for bladder and urinary tract cancers.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It collects samples for future research, so there is no direct benefit to participants and no guarantee of new therapies.
Conditions
